    4th Test (Old Trafford, Manchester) - 23rd to 27th of July

    They used the same excuse of the team being in a "developing phase" when they failed on their England tour in 2018. Such a pathetic reason to give, something not even Sri Lanka or Zimbabwe use to hide behind. These guys just don't know how to think. Even in earlier years, their fast bowling was...

    4th Test (Old Trafford, Manchester) - 23rd to 27th of July

    What a shambolic, rubbish, abysmal performance by India. Reminds me of the days they would easily let the match drift away. Gill makes Nohit look like Ponting with his decisions in the field. And this bowling is even worse than in Headingley. On the other hand, congratulations to Joe Root for...

    4th Test (Old Trafford, Manchester) - 23rd to 27th of July

    I must ask, does Gill even know Sundar and Jadeja exist? The time to bowl Sundar was at the last session of yesterday. I mean, he was the best bowler for India at Lords and yet he's just in the field? Garbage stuff.

    4th Test (Old Trafford, Manchester) - 23rd to 27th of July

    Still, I think a team of India's quality can do much better than they have on those "difficult places to tour". If you look at how much talent they have, they could easily make almost 3-4 good teams. But as Michael Vaughan (whom I don't always agree with) said after their WTC final defeat 2...

    on a serious note, he's a big upgrade over the likes of Ian Ward in the comm box.

    4th Test (Old Trafford, Manchester) - 23rd to 27th of July

    Wouldn't pay too much attention to rankings, to be honest. They were pretty poor and let games drift away overseas, and England crushed them at home in 2012

    4th Test (Old Trafford, Manchester) - 23rd to 27th of July

    A bit off topic, but I feel India over the last year or two have gone in the same direction as the early 2010s. Very strong and successful in ICC trophies (excluding WTC), but pretty pathetic in test cricket, especially overseas.

    4th Test (Old Trafford, Manchester) - 23rd to 27th of July

    I can see England making almost 600 at the moment. I had a feeling there would be one test where India will be outplayed completely. IND are only good on paper. In practice, they're bang average

    4th Test (Old Trafford, Manchester) - 23rd to 27th of July

    Unless India snatch another wicket in these last few minutes, it remains England's match to lose. Still many more batters to come in Brook, Stokes, Jamie Smith.

    Kamboj is bowling much better now. Decent rhythm.

    Much better from Kamboj. Keep it on that line

    I can hear the guffaws of Zak's wealthy father and Rob Key from my computer.

    Listening to Sweet Caroline playing during an English cricket summer. Can't get better.

    Kamboj looks on par with Sam Cook at the moment.

    The dude is always clamoring for a review. That ball was definitely going over.

    Looks like Rob Key and Zak's aristocrat father had a nice golf game.
